Think of it as evangelism. While this area has a great number of Seahawks fans, there are also a lot of heathen Cowboys, Packers, and even 49ers fans to convert. I say we should let them go about their holy work, cleansing the homeland of its saracen presence.

Well you people in the Seattle area have easier access to pro-shop events and other local stuff. We simple folk out here in the nether regions of WA only get this once a year event. And last year was the first one I'd ever heard about.

I think it's cool that the team started doing this - It's nice that they took the time to recognize all of the fans outside of the Seattle area. There's a lot of 'hawk fans over here in the Tri-Cities, Yakima, and Spokane.

Actually, you would be surprised. The majority of those events are held during the middle part of the day or the afternoon on a weekday, because otherwise there would be WAY too many people showing up. (For events in and immediately around Seattle.) So, most of us that you know, have actual normal full-time jobs, rarely have opportunities like this; whereas the more rural/outlying ones like this, start at 5pm, 6pm, etc...

Just sayin'.

From where I'm sitting none of yous got anything to bitch about

There's what I used to know, what I think I know, and what I know I know. And they all get lost in the haze sometimes.

I was at the event in Vancouver, BC this last weekend, had a great time. Got to meet Red, Sherm and Baldwin, play some flag football etc. Great time, 2 day event. The Play 60 stuff is great for the kids.

Well blue... I think you're right about being afraid. I got there last year at 5:30, had no trouble parking and there wasn't that many people there. Sounds like it's gonna be packed this year. Guess that's what happens when your team is a winner.

It was on a Tuesday or wed night last year as well. Being on thursday is not gonna help.

Just got back. It was over capacity at 4:30. They went through and marked 150 people from each of the two main rooms, and the rest had to go outside to wait until people left. When I left the line outside was 100+ people. I got Sherm, Browner and Baldwin's sigs. When asked if Harbaugh is just as big a douche in real life, Baldwin answered with "no comment." LOL. All of them were very nice despite being bombarded.

Sorry I never caught up with you SE. Last year was soooo much better. The Pub could not handle it this time around. There was 10 times as many people. They're gonna need a bigger venue next year. It took 5 hours, but I got the sigs for my mini-helmet and got a pic with Doug.

If they do this at the Pub next year I'm not going (unless they bring RW).

It's all good... it was a mad house in there. They definitely need a bigger venue.
